This horse has been beaten
but
is missing.
Im in need of a new chain. I linked up with MC Mustang over the weekend and we adjusted my 16000mi now binding chain. I want to do everything right the first time, so Ill replace the chain, front and rear sprockets and cush drive. Im definately a "set it and forget it" type so I want to do it all at once.
My Busa is a touring bike; no dragging, no stunting, no wheelies. As with most of us, this bike has way more potential than my inferior human riding skills can ever out do. As such, I am inclined to maintain its stock gearing. I am open to changes though, but Im not sure what dropping/adding a tooth would do. Like I said, Im not going to drag, race or wheelie it. I would like a chain and sprocket that looks like an after market piece but not all bling-ed out. Im leaning towards a colored chain (gold maybe) but I havent had luck seeing pix of after market chains. I dont want to loose MPG. The ODO goes off the front wheel so gearing wont change the numbers, but will a different sprocket change/correct the speedo?
Thanks
My bike is stock except for a DB screen.
